1. An umbrella handle mounted on an umbrella including an umbrella canopy that is opened to protect against rain or folded, umbrella ribs supporting a lower surface of the umbrella canopy, and a link structure mounted to unfold or fold the umbrella ribs, the umbrella handle comprising:
a main pole (110) that has an upper end binding part (111), having a structure disposed at a center of the lower surface of the umbrella canopy and bound to the umbrella ribs, mounted on an upper end and that extends a predetermined length downward;
a link driving part (120) mounted on an outer circumferential surface of the main pole (110) to be movable by sliding in a vertical height direction and bound to the link structure by a hinge structure;
a downward extension pole (130) mounted to have a structure that is able to stretch downward from a lower end of the main pole (110) or contract;
a holding binding part (140) that is mounted on a lower end of the downward extension pole (130), has a tubular structure that is able to be inserted into or withdrawn from a holding part (150), and has an operation switch (141) of the link driving part (120) mounted on an outer circumferential surface; and
the holding part (150) that has a tubular structure in which an insertion hole (151) is formed in an upper surface to allow the holding binding part (140), the downward extension pole (130), and a lower sliding part (122) of the link driving part (120) to be inserted into or withdrawn and that has a structure held by a hand of a user,
wherein the link driving part (120) includes an upper sliding part (121) having a tubular structure mounted on the outer circumferential surface of the main pole (110) to be movable by sliding in the vertical height direction; the lower sliding part (122) having a tubular structure that is integrally formed with the upper sliding part (121), is mounted on the outer circumferential surface of the main pole (110) to be movable by sliding in the vertical height direction, and has an outer diameter that enables insertion or withdrawal into or from the insertion hole (151) of the holding part (150); and a hinge binding part (123) integrally mounted between the upper sliding part (121) and the lower sliding part (122) and extending a predetermined width toward both sides to be bound to the link structure by the hinge structure,
the downward extension pole (130) includes a first extension part (131) mounted by a sliding binding structure that is able to be inserted a predetermined depth into the main pole (110) from the lower end of the main pole (110) or discharged therefrom; and a second extension part (132) mounted by a sliding binding structure that is able to be inserted a predetermined depth into the first extension part (131) from a lower end of the first extension part (131) or discharged therefrom,
the holding binding part (140) includes a second rail part (144) having a structure that is formed to continuously protrude from both side surfaces of the holding binding part (140) in the vertical height direction and formed to have a protruding part seated thereon and guide the protruding part to be movable by sliding in the vertical height direction, and
the link driving part (120) includes a first rail part (125) having a structure that is formed to continuously protrude from both side surfaces of the lower sliding part (122) in the vertical height direction, formed to be continuous with the second rail part (144), and formed to, together with the second rail part (144), have the protruding part seated thereon and guide the protruding part to be movable by sliding in the vertical height direction; and
the holding part (150) includes a protruding part (153) that has a tubular structure and has a structure formed to continuously protrude from both sides of the inner circumferential surface of the hollow structure in the vertical height direction and seated on the second rail part (144) and the first rail part (125) to be movable by sliding in the vertical height direction.
